ok…ride report..
Woke up to after a good nights sleep cheering that we were going to have a mid morning start.Big brecky on offer,bacon eggs,sausages etc.Geared up for the ride,and met the kind lads who were to take us to hell and back.
The moment we hit the dirt the pace was a cracker,stag chilly beef and beans started to kick in and i had great concerns for Ollie the sweep :laugh:
From there on it was awesome trail after awesome trail.First off was in the bloody same spot as before..Eagles bob sled hill.Tested the new six six one body armour and it came up trumps.Unlike the day before i had an audience this time so i couldn’t get away with it
about 5 blokes looking on with Murph above me with a big smile on his dial,oh well,thats the first one outa the way :cheer:
Man did we have some cracking fun in and outa trails!!!That many steep down hill tracks i reckon i could jump on a plane and compete in the winter down hill events and pick up a medal :laugh:
Thanks for drowning your bike smurf,the break was enjoyable,fuuny watching Diddle doing a Bomb into the creek nearlly drowning Holeshot while the pair of em swam around in full riding gear.Up sproket hill…that was fun,poor Boony…wheres a helicopter when you need one?
Next major off happened at a bit of pace(for me anyway) went pair shape and ended up in the jungle with my bike sitting up on the track,landed on my bloody head…ouch…lifted myself up by the top of my helmet so i could stretch my neck out..crack crack crack…Holeshot came over the track and i gave him the thumbs up,all good :cheer:
Some places that jungle looked like some island in the pacific,im surprised the monkeys in trees didn’t start throwing coconuts at us
.
Dont ask me what happened but somehow i ended up above every one else in one section ontop of a ridge :ohmy: i was none the wiser anyway.The track suddenly strarted to look like the western face of Ayres Rock,it was allmost a shear drop down this awfull bloody looking wet shaley rockface.I pulled up,had a look,nearlly shit myself,thought to my self “got no choice…the others infront of me went down it,so…i suppose i better too”.Tightened my sphincter and away i went!!!!Survived the worst of it and pulled up in a rut for a breather within sight of the rest of the group who were sitting at the intersection down the bottom.Boony looked up and saw me there,yelled out something along the line of WTF are you doing up there?…i didn’t know what the hell he was talking about…i was just happy to be alive :cheer:
MickG proceeded to crash into me when a tree was across the road,i think he was to busy racing DanD to look ahead for stranded gumbys like me,no damage done and he kept saying sorry…so i milked it for all it was worth.You will be hearing from my solicitors later this week Mick 😆
Found a nice tricky bit later on with some rio on it,got stuck on a dirty chunk of wood,cleared it outa the way for Boony behind me and he made it up no worries….bloody hell…i had to put up with that great story of the mighty Boons rio climbing adventures all the way home to Tamworth :blink:
Pulled up at a main road as the wounded Holeshot came in we worked out we were one person short…oh shit :ohmy: AustBlue became Tony Abbot and little boy lost all in the space of less than 24 hrs…sat around in the sun for a while…cards would have been handy…enjoyed watching the top of DanD’s head getting burnt.Search parties headed off in different dirrections the eventually news that he was ok came through :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
For some strange reason Ollie wanted to ride my bike back home,the thought of me on his gas gas going down that bloody marble invested hill gave me the shivers,i declined his offer cause i reckon i mighta put his bike up in a tree.Ollie looked a bit disapointed but trust me mate…the right decission was made :unsure:
Back at camp we said our goodbyes and tears were shed.Boony and i had a pretty quite trip home,exept for the odd rio story…pulled up and got a feed at Singo and a coffe at the Brook.Then evetually home sweet home.
thanks for a great week end bulls…one of the very best.Cheers Ollie and to the Dungogians.Cheers Boony for the funny trip down and making me look good on the track. :laugh:
Could only take one photo of that day as my battery died
Bol :woohoo:

I reckon you did all you could in a bad sitation
No one is to be blamed.You ended up in one piece and thats all that matters
As for vests,one for the lead rider, one for the sweep,end of story.
As Tony Abbot pointed out,you may not know the lead rider…hell…i never got near him,i wasnt really sure who was leading!!.Allthough, i was on first name basis with the sweep
Doesnt matter what colour…as long as they are fluro.Maybe a glow stick and sparkelers on the helmet just to make it a bit funky :cheer:
Bol :woohoo:

this is where we pulled up on the track road junction…2 old blokes rode up the road pedals pumping , in their skin tight tour de france gear..We were all gob smacked to see them…TB broke the ice by telling one of em that they had a “Fat arse” :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Cracker of a weekend guys.
After much ginning around Boony and i finally hit the road,exept i had to head back cause i forgot my swag…Doh :huh: …pulled into the highway fruit vendor and bought Ollie some Lezo lubricant(you never know when they might pop up).Met up with Billy and Jase and we were off for our great southern adventure :cheer:
Stopped at the health food shop at Muswellbrook and got a supply of burgers and fries and some ice at Singleton for Boonys little handbag that held 4 beers.Turning off the highway towards Gresford/Dungog we noticed how beautifull the country side was,green rolling hills,creeks and bovine happily munching away.Fresh out of Enya cd’s we went for the Guns and Roses greatest hits instead :cheer: Boonys air guitar (seatbelt) while holding a beer was quite impressive,as was my effort,lead singer with torch as mike,tinny,smoke and steering wheel,navigating through some serious single track Tar
Found the camp site after about 20 piss stops(Boony you old man),unloaded and met a few Bulls we have not met before and re aquainted ourselves with a few that we had.The mood was good and the campsite was like something out of National Geographic.(top work Ollie :cheer: )The ring of knowledge was formed and the bullshit began :laugh: TB held the floor for most of the night and the wise cracks were flying left right and centre,and Ollie started talking German 😆 Eventually it was time to crash and i rolled out my swag and there was bloody nothing in it :ohmy: Thank God Boonys swag was set up for the Antartic and he lent me a few blankies…thanks M8 :)Slept like a log and apparently Hole shot arrived during the night and nearlly parked his trailor ontop of me and my swag,i slept through the whole thing :laugh:
Up and ready to go and this young bloke flys in late…AustBlue..more about you later :laugh: which suited me fine cause i’m usaully the last to get ready .
Waited at Dungog with a few of the lads,had a smoke,and watched TB going off his tits trying to get all his lambs together in one nice little flock 😆 Once the shepard had finally rounded up his sheep wee were on our way.Nothing beats a convoy off dirt bikes :cheer: …you can stick your Harleys up your arse Hells Angels
Hit the forrest and the fun began.The first tricky bit,Shall we call it eagles hill? was upon us and Eagle and i pulled up at the lip of it and sort looked at each other and thought…”this wasn’t in the brochure” :ohmy:
I went first and had an off in the exact same place i did the next day…no one saw me so i quickly got back on.Met the others at the bottom and MickG filled us in on what happened behind me…Good on ya Eages…you were lucky mate…i stacked it there twice in 2 days!!!!Went up some greasy track and watched TB calling chicken to get him a crane so he could pull his bike out of a bike eating rut…then diddle flys up the same line..and plop…into the same canyon…all good ,back down the hill we go .Had a bit of fun in the quarry allthough you had to keep your eye out for some mad bastard dressed like a Lady beetle tearing up the hill every 8 seconds :laugh:
Cheers for the bbq Ollie and Kram…thought we were going to have Sushi sausages there for a while boys..i was about to become a vegan,but with the OldBulls know how she all came good :cheer:
Lunch done and on our way,stuck at the back of a traffic jam after 30 seconds from take off,unfortunatly i couldn’t see what was going on up front,word soon passed down the line that the big man was down :laugh: after riding down “the hill of marbles rollercoaster”we popped out a gate and cruised home,overtaken by Lifter on his KTM and sat back and watched him cruise home on one wheel(hats of bro,you can ride).Beers and swim were the order of the day,austBlue strutted past in his speedo dickstickers,all oiled up looking for a photo shoot,from here on he became the celeb rider for the next day..The honorable Mr Tony Abbot,Leader of the opposition :laugh: Watched Shane,Diddle and Champo have a bit of fun on the mx track and while a few others belted off for another ride through the forrest.Settled down for the evening with a few beers and a few too many rumbos,knocked down a can of Stag chilly beef with beans which gave me a heap of backfire for the next day :laugh:
Thanks TB for a great ride and MickG for sweeping with a laugh .Cheers to Ollie for the great campsite and to the fella who owned it double thumbs up :cheer:
